Spring Grove Cemetery and Arboretum is located at 4521 Spring Grove Avenue in Cincinnati, Ohio. Horticulturist Adolph Strauch pioneered the "lawn plan" design when Spring Grove was established in 1845. This was a continuing effort to keep graveyards beautiful and inviting. This cemetery is the final resting place for many of Cincinnati's prominent historical figures and a living tree museum. The interior architecture has lead to it being recognized as a US National Historic Landmark.

A pub on Fishamble Street in Dublin is named Darkey Kelly's. The name commemorates a dark time in Ireland's history when a woman had to do what she could to keep out of poverty, and this particular woman, Darkey Kelly, was accused of multiple murders and hanged and burned at the stake for her crimes. But did she really commit these crimes or was she framed after the local sheriff got her pregnant? And does her spirit still haunt this area as an apparition known as "The Green Lady?"

Lake View Cemetery is located in Cleveland, Ohio and is affectionately known as Cleveland's Outdoor Museum. And that is for good reason because there are thousands of beautiful trees, flowers, memorials, monuments and even a dam. During the Gilded Age, this was the cemetery to the elite. Burials continue today for anyone. Behind the iron gates lie the remains of many well known people, including a former President. And one memorial is dedicated to those lost in a tragic and deadly school fire.
